Albert Einstein- The Cultural Icon from the 20th Century
Albert Einstein once said “I want to know God’s thoughts, the rest are details”. Einstein wanted an equation that would encapsulate all physical laws.

Fashion is said to be evolutionary and not revolutionary. This was not true in the 20th century. Fashion revolutionized America and the rest of the world during this time period. Also, during this time period fashion evolved tremendously. New fabrics and innovations were introduced to America.
